Sexting Myths And Truths

I know you would like to believe that girls lay in bed naked all day and play with themselves while they sext you, but more than most of the time that is nowhere near true.

Here’s some assumptions about sexting:

-It cannot be done while multitasking

-It’s all about the pictures

-Girls who do it are sluts

-It has no positive effect other than arousing your man before a date

So, here’s the truths…

#1 Most girls aren’t JUST sexting you while they are sexting you. They could be driving, at work, in the grocery store, or walking the dog.

-I was doing the dishes on more than one occasion.

#2 A description with playful words does wonders. It allows the imagination to run wild which is sometimes better than any picture could do.

-Time to get your writing on, which is my specialty. You can create anything you want, and can carefully think about what you say.

While we’re on the topic of pictures………

Girls have pictures saved on their phone from days where they felt their sexiest to use on days when they are too busy to take new ones, or when they feel NOT so good about themselves.

We want pictures of you too- and not just of “down there”. We want poses and full body pictures, like we send you. It’s only fair 😉

-They don’t have to be completely nude either. We like to imagine things too.

-Don’t forget to use any props wisely and get plenty of lighting- No one wants a picture where they have to ask what it is!

#3 Woman, just like men sext for multiple reasons but mainly to feel good about themselves.

-Everyone deserves to feel good about themselves. If one day you wake up feeling great about yourself, you have every right to share the love.

#4 Sexting not only gets the vibes going for both partners, but is also a great communication tool. By sending specific and detailed messages back and forth, couples learn what is okay and what is NOT ok with their partner in the bedroom.

-This is also a great time to ask any questions or share any concerns that you have with your partner that you might be too nervous or scared to say out loud (to their face).

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
